How has living differently from those around you affected your life? I've known people who relished the edgy feeling of challenging old viewpoints and asserting themselves. However, I'm not one of them. I'm fairly reserved and quiet by nature, so for me it's always been a challenge to say things like "I disagree" or "that's not how I want to spend my time."
But if you have definite goals you're working towards or values that affect how you live, and those values conflict with those of family and friends, you've got to find ways to be firm yet keep good relations. This is something I'll be exploring in future posts. I invite your input.
